Item description from seller

8vo, pp. viii, 144; a good copy in contemporary calf, boards rather worn, rebacked. Third edition in English: the original French text was first published in 1749, and is considered the most important book in all chess literature. A.D. Philidor (1726-95) was the most brilliant player of his age, but he was also a talented musician and a leading composer of opéras comiques.
